Embodiments of the invention additionally provide a kind of driving method of above-mentioned image element circuit, specifically, shown in reference picture 3, This method comprises the following steps:
S31, first stage, node control unit is under the control of the voltage of the first scanning end by the voltage of reference voltage end Export to first node;Reset unit is under the control of the voltage of the first scanning end by the voltage at the resetting voltage end to institute Section Point is stated to be resetted.

Referring to the signal sequence view shown in Fig. 4, to picture shown in the image element circuit and Fig. 3 shown in Fig. 2 The operation principle of the driving method of plain circuit is illustrated.Wherein, with all switching transistors it is in fig. 2 grid low level When the P-type transistor that turns on exemplified by illustrate.The first scanning end S1, the second scanning end S2, the 3rd scanning end S3 are included in Fig. 4 And the 4th scanning end S4 signal sequence state.In addition, wherein the first level terminal V1 provides high level Vdd, second electrical level end V2 ground connection provides Vss;Exemplary, second electrical level end V2 can be grounded.Four sequential stages are provided as shown in Figure 4, including:t1 (first stage), t2 (second stage), t3 (phase III) and t4 (fourth stage).
First stage, the first scanning end S1 low levels, the second scanning end S2, the 3rd scanning end S3 and the 4th scanning end S4 High level, therefore the first transistor T1 and the 6th transistor T6 conductings, remaining transistor are turned off.Reference voltage end Vref passes through The first transistor T1 connection first node N1, so this stage first node N1 voltage is reference voltage end Vref voltage. Resetting voltage end Vinit is by the 6th transistor T6 connection Section Point N2, so this stage Section Point N2 voltage is multiple The voltage of position voltage end, simultaneously because the first electric capacity C1 the first pole and the second pole connect first node N1 and Section Point respectively N2, so the first electric capacity C1 the first pole and the voltage of the second pole are also respectively reference voltage end Vref voltage and resetting voltage Hold Vinit voltage.Because first stage N1 and second stage N2 voltage amplitude are constant voltage, therefore first by this stage Stage is also known as reseting stage.
Second stage, the 3rd scanning end S3 low levels, the first scanning end S1, the second scanning end S2 and the 4th scanning end S4 High level, therefore third transistor T3, the 4th transistor T4 and the 7th transistor T7 conductings, remaining transistor are turned off.Number According to voltage end Vdata by third transistor T3 connections first node N1, first node N1 voltage by the first stage reference Voltage end Vref voltage jump is data voltage end Vdata voltage.Again due to the 4th transistor T4 conductings, so driving is brilliant Body pipe DTFT grid is connected with drain electrode, and driving transistor DTFT gate source voltages difference is equal to the threshold voltage of driving transistor, because This Section Point N2 voltage jump is the first level terminal V1 voltage and driving transistor DTFT threshold voltage sum.This Outside, because the 7th transistor T7 is turned on, thus this stage resetting voltage end Vinit also by the 7th transistor T7 by light-emitting diodes The voltage amplitude of pipe D1 anode is resetting voltage end Vinit voltage.
It should be noted that, although Section Point N2 voltage jump can be made to be the first electricity by second stage in theory Flush end V1 voltage and driving transistor DTFT threshold voltage sum are (i.e., it is possible to read driving transistor DTFT threshold value electricity Pressure), but in some high-resolution application scenarios.Because the time span of second stage is too small, may result in can not Read the threshold voltage of driving transistor.For example:When the resolution ratio of display panel is that 1440*2560, frequency are 60HZ, each picture The driving transistor DTFT of element threshold voltage read access time is 1s/60HZ/2560=5.6us.In addition.Remove the upper of waveform Liter, fall time, the driving transistor DTFT of each pixel threshold value read access time is less than 5us, and resolution ratio is higher, each The driving transistor DTFT of pixel threshold voltage read access time is shorter.This stage main function is the threshold for reading driving transistor Threshold voltage, thus this stage be also known as threshold value read the stage.
Phase III, the 4th scanning end S4 low levels, the first scanning end S1, the second scanning end S2 and the 3rd scanning end S3 High level, therefore the 5th transistor T5 conductings, remaining transistor are turned off.Due to the first transistor T1, second transistor T2 with And third transistor T3 is turned off, so the first of the first electric capacity C1 extremely without discharge path, voltage is maintained as on last stage Data voltage end voltage;It is similar with second stage, and because the 5th transistor T5 is turned on, so driving transistor DTFT Grid is connected with drain electrode, and driving transistor DTFT gate source voltages difference is equal to driving transistor DTFT threshold voltage, therefore second Node N2 voltage jump is the first level terminal V1 voltage and driving transistor DTFT threshold voltage sum.This stage is main It act as the threshold voltage that supplement reads driving transistor DTFT, also known as threshold value supplement reading stage.
Due to adding the above-mentioned phase III in the embodiment of the present invention, therefore embodiments of the invention can increase pixel electricity The time span of the threshold voltage of driver element is read on road, and then solution image element circuit possibly can not read the threshold value of driver element The problem of voltage.
Fourth stage, the second scanning end S2 low levels, the first scanning end S1, the 3rd scanning end S3 and the 4th scanning end S4 High level, therefore second transistor T2 and the 8th transistor T8 conductings, remaining transistor are turned off.Reference voltage end Vref passes through Second transistor T2 connection first nodes, therefore first node N1 voltage is changed into reference voltage end Vref voltage.While root According to the law of conservation of charge on Section Point N2, Section Point N2 voltage is changed into the voltage of the first level terminal, driver element Voltage and with the voltage at data voltage end the difference of threshold voltage and reference voltage end.
By TFT saturation currents formula can obtain flow into OLED electric current be:
IOLED=K (Vgs-Vth)2
Wherein,μ、CoxFor process constant;W is driving transistor DTFT channel width;L is drive Dynamic transistor DTFT channel length;VgsThe voltage difference of grid voltage and source voltage for driving transistor DTFT;VthDriving Transistor DTFT threshold voltage.
Because driving transistor DTFT grid voltage is equal to Section Point N2 voltage, therefore, driving transistor DTFT Grid voltage be:
Vg=V1+Vth+Vref-Vdata;
Wherein, V1 is the voltage of the first level terminal;Vref is the voltage of reference voltage end;Vdata is data voltage end Voltage.
Driving transistor DTFT source voltage is:VS=V1;
So driving transistor DTFT grid voltage and the voltage difference of source voltage are:
Vgs=(V1+Vth+ Vref-Vdata)-V1=Vth+Vref-Vdata
IOLED=K (Vgs-Vth)2=K [(Vth+Vref-Vdata)-Vth]2=K (Vref-Vdata)2
It can be seen that OLED operating current has been not driven the influence of transistor DTFT threshold voltage in above formula, It is only relevant with the voltage at data voltage end and the voltage of reference voltage end, therefore driving transistor can be solved due to manufacturing process And the problem of causing threshold voltage shift is operated for a long time, it is eliminated to the influence for the electric current for flowing into OLED, it is ensured that OLED's Normal work.
Further, all transistors can also be what grid high level was turned in the image element circuit in above-described embodiment N-type transistor, if all transistors are N-type transistor, only needs to readjust the sequential of each scanning end of image element circuit State, for example:The clock signal terminal of t1 stages first is adjusted to high level, adjustment t1 stages second clock letter in adjustment Fig. 4 Number end is adjusted to low level, and other signals are also adjusted to the clock signal of opposite in phase.
